Honda Accord Engine Problem

When i first start the car any time the engine is cold it makes a very loud high pitched sound like a belt sqeaking that last for about 30 seconds and then stops. However if i turn on any accessories such as headlights,wipers,heater fan etc. It continues to squeal. Car runs good and has a small oil leak. Not real mechanically inclined any suggestions appreciated

If it sounds like a belt, then have the belts checked. It probably is a belt problem.
